The hope of securing the money
prompted him to the crime. Price

THE story comes from the east
over the wires that Gen. Smith, Sec
rotary of State and then Secretary
of the Treasury under Jefferson
died in Baltimore last week at
the age of SO. Jefferson was
president from 1901 to 1909. "Gen
Smith" therefore was one year old
when Jefferson became president
and eight years of age when he re-
tired. Rather young for such a po-
sition. Madison was Secretary OF
State and Gallatin Of the Treasury
under Jefferson.

BURGLARS AT WORK.
Firearms StOIenlin Rock Island and
in MOline---A Small Burglary In
nayeuuapt

-
In Moline-.-A Small Burglary In
Davenport.
Burglars were around again last night.
and from peculiar coincidence concern
ing their raids in Rock Island and Mos
line, one would judge the work of last
night is only preliminary to holder. and
perhaps more serious deeds.
The family of c. Wolf, the gunsmith,
at 1913 Eighteenth street, occupy rooms
Immediately over the store. Shortly
after 2 o'clock this morning, Mrs. Wolff
was awakened by crash in the store be.
low and she Immediately aroused her
husband, who descended to the store to
find one Of the lights Of the north front
window smashed, and the gun nearest
the opening gone. Outside of the window
lay a brick which had done the wor K.
From appearances the brick had been
placed against the window and pressed
until the glass was broken-it had not
been hurled through The gun stolen
was valued at $40. There were
others of more value IN the window, the
one next being worth $50, Mrs. Wolff
observed the hasty retreat of the burglar
from the upper window while her
husband was going down. He fled
across Eighteenth street and into the all
ley going west.
The most peculiar part of it is, that
Moline was the scene of similar burg
larry about half an hour later, showing
that the marauder probably had accom>
plices, and maybe team, and that the
parties guilty Of the burglary here are
guilty of the one in Moline. The hard
ware store of B. H. Quick in that city,
was broken into in exactly the same
manner and $50 rifle taken from the
window.
In Davenport, the residence of G W.
Kerker was entered. and the burglar re
ceived the sum of sixty cents for his
trouble There are no clues to the burg
lars in any one of the three cities.
